A short video showing the Lew Racing Pro VT-1 rear wheel stiffness.
The wheel is very stiff as long as the spokes do not enter in compression and bend. After this point, the wheel loses all its stiffness.
It means the wheels are performant for riders up to 70/75kg.
wtf

Yeah, and I guess you believe that this kind of wheels can be safe? LOL. I do understand weight weenieism (I also try to shave weight of my bike) but for me buying ultralight components is silly.

How do mavic produce carbon spokes on the ccu with far greater tension than lew or lightweight can? surely carbon spokes need to be tensioned in a similar fashion to steel ones?
